Did a bunch of LK runs and pit runs yesterday, and some LK runs today with Goddess

Decent melee ring, nice ar+ll+str.



Nice sc. But why didn't I find this on my melee char? :D



Almost perfect ed/req jewel. Would've been cool on my melee char too :P

And then, todays highlight! :) No hr yesterday, so I guess it was time today :D I hope there's more to come! Need one more Sur for my Coh.



Now I'm off for training, so I'm bumping this question again, hoping you can help me decide :)

My two main goals are:

1. Ubers
2. Solo Baal runs as quick as possible.

Is crushing blow helping against normal mobs or only special monsters/bosses?

I guess my 2 options atm is:

1. Eth ribcracker + Grief PB+Stormshield
2. Non-eth ribracker (Shael or Rjof) + Botd + Grief+Stormshield.

What would you go for? Keep in mind that the only base I have for botd atm is a Eth Ogre Maul, which only has about 100 more dmg than Ribcracker if I make a Botd in it.

Bumping this again :) I haven't been able to play in a few days, too much work. But soon!

What do you guys think about this setup:

Eth botd Ogre Maul or Glorious Axe (Same avg dmg, but higher top damage and 3 range instead of 1) + Non-eth ribcracker Ed/Ias-jewel + Grief PB/Stormshield.

Using the Botd, I use Guillaumes 'Um' for some extra resist, but with a nice deadly strike, fhr and CB.

Deadly strike is more useful against normal mobs than CB, am I right?

you are right for the normal mobs...really just depends on how much life they have and how much damage u do

For me, it's tough to compare them. Deadly strike will double your damage (nee elemental, crushing blow damage) but Crushing Blow takes a certain percentage of life off of a monster.
The problem is at what level of monster life is break-even point for damage vs crushing blow.

Thank you for the replies, guys :)

Still haven't decided.

Been working all weekend, and working tomorrow, so I haven't been able to play.

Btw, why aren't any fury druids using Phoenix Monarch with a Grief PB? I mean, that's another 400% ed, Redemption Aura, life, fire absorb and 5% max LR and 10% max FR.

If I go with Botd + Gulli + Highlord + Gores I get:
-25% target defense
- 64% Deadly strike
- 50% CB
- Prevent monster heal, Life leech and 250% Dmg to undead.
- About 550-760 Weapon Dmg with a decent Botd roll in Ogre Maul (Min-Max dmg)
- Nice Ml/LL, Poison nova, 30 all attributes.

If I go with Eth Ribcracker, Jalals + Highlord + Gores I get:
- +80 Fhr
- +30 All res, 20% Bonus AR, +4 skills and +20 strength from Jalals
- 65% CB (100% if I use Gulli)
- 49% Deadly strike
- +100% Enhanced defense
- 447-661 Weapon Damage

With this in mind, and the fact that I also have a non eth upg ribcracker (socked with ias/ed or Shael) that I can swith with Botd (And most likely a Grief+Storm or Phoenix), which set up would you combine, if the main goal is Uber, Solo baal and pit runs?

I hit the same fps with both weapons. And of course I can use Jalals with Botd too.

Personally I'm leaning more against the first option right now, as I can switch to a non eth ribcracker and grief.

Blows my mind that you find all that stuff and still thinking about using pheonix on that druid.
